Gone Bush - 1 to 10

The "Gone Bush" series is some of my early work. The aim was to create an Australian style comic strip with a very country humour.  The main characters include; Bob Wombat the farmer, Rex the sheep dog, Dr Echidna the dentist and a few "bushy" koalas. Enjoy!

Ika & Kuching - English edition

Here's some work from a little while ago. This was to be a comic strip titled "Ika & Kuching" (the English language version of Ikan & Kucing). In this I aimed to tell a little more of the origin of the unsusal friendship between the two main characters and how they came to live in "Big Pete's Fishing Supplies Shop".









Ikan & Kucing - At the restaurant

This is a 4 page comic featuring Ikan and Kucing (Fish and Cat).  This was originally completed as a University assignment on discussions around a familiar topic. Our two heroes enter a Balinese restaurant and put in an order.  The Cat gets bored and sets fire to his chair while 'clowning around' with a candle!

Using grey shaders

Experimenting with light and dark while using grey shaders. The top panel has a little Uderzo (Asterix & Obelix) influence in the technique for the tree and the silhouetted crowd of children listening to their alien teacher (wearing a stylish Balinese shirt).
The lower panel draws upon Polynesian and Chinese influences.
